I have been unable to reply to your comments about my mower that went underwater. If you prefer, you can simply reply to my forum posting at http://www.lawnmowerforum.com/craftsman-forum/36169-craftsman-push-mower-will-not-start-after-being-underwater.html

I really wish I could figure out why I'm getting HTTP errors every time I attempt to reply via the forum.

Thanks for the reply. I think you may have figured it out but I'm not sure what my next step needs to be. I'm not a small engine guru (not even close). There are 2 bolts near the bottom of the carburetor. Do I remove the one on the side and leave it off? I assume the bolt on the bottom holds the bottom piece to the main unit of the carburetor. This is the kit I bought from Amazon and it came from China:

hi there!
am wondering if you could advise re the necessity of changing the fluid in the drive unit on a hydro-drive Rover Rancher (model 28266; year 2005).
Bought it yesterday; did a mow and am a tad concerned 'bout the noises it makes, and also that it climbs not at all well: ramping into the trailer is almost a non-event . . impossible with the catcher attached. And yes, I have wi-ide ramps!!
anyway, all info appreciated
cheers,
